Pageview 19M belongs to MMelchor. We rode out the server switch and another month of the search engines ignoring our name change (Yahoo! is coming around, MSN will soon follow - Google....who knows? ;-) ) for our slowest million in quite a while.

Recent millions (and how fast we got the million)

server switch + slowest million count = good or bad?

Well, it's also less Google referrals plus hopefully some improved navigation (as in I can see all the new articles with one click instead of going through fifty-some-odd different pages to read all the threads with new articles, for example). Probably before 20M we'll get some of the search engine hits back but ALSO I'll release the "show all new articles" page so there'll be more balance. The bottom line is: pageviews are an interesting metric, but not the be-all-end-all. There has to be some context as well.

Banished threads are the heads on poles outside of the city - they serve as a warning to all who enter that *this* was considered stupid, pointless, offensive, etc. Only one example really needs to live. The rest can just be deleted.
